Chapter 463: Battle of Anfield (1) (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Unless it is a system check-in reward and a task completion reward, according to the program, the system is not allowed to sell skill cards related to the player's competitive ability to the host. "The system finally spoke.
"If I don't give money, it's not a sale." Fang Jue said immediately.
System:......
As a system, he had never seen such a ......
Then, the system was a little panicked, logically speaking, what Fang Jue said was not wrong.
Fang Jue has a trait that he is good at exploiting loopholes.
The system's instantaneous 'distraction' was caught by him.
"Sure enough, I knew that this was okay, hurry up, system, do some personnel, hurry up."
"Hurry up, what are the right skills, hurry up."
"It is a virtue to give without gratuition."
Fang Jue's mouth was like a poisonous tongue that spit out a letter, and the system was a little overwhelmed.
Looks like the host is right.
There is no prohibition on giving away for free.
Hey?
Fang Jue's eyes were thieves, and he immediately saw a skill card that the system had secretly leaked, and directly chose to be sure.
Almost as soon as he 'stolen' this skill card, he received a prompt from the system in his mind: the system has fixed a bug, and it is forbidden to give it to the host for free from then on.
Fang Jue regretted that the cunning fox of the system reacted so quickly, it seems that there is no next time for such a good thing.
"System, you don't pay attention to it, forget it, I forgive you."
System:......
System prompt: The system has closed the conversation and no longer wants to communicate with the host.
Phew, watch out.
Fang Jue felt fortunate to have such a broad-minded host as himself, otherwise, the system would have to be scolded every day.
He ignored the careful-eyed system and began to study the skill card that he had fooled around.
[The Boy Who Chased the Wind (Michael. Owen) possession primary experience card].
Ooh!
Good stuff.
The only regret is that it is only a junior experience card, and the time limit is only 45 minutes.
Forget it, if you get cheap and sell well, Fang Jue has always been a kind and contented person.
However, this skill card also gave him a deeper understanding of the system, and it seems that there are still many treasures in the system.
"System, it seems that you still have a lot of little secrets."
System prompt: The system does not want to pay attention to the host.
……
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez isn't in a good mood these days.
Liverpool's £30.2 million profit in the last financial year did not bring in sufficient summer military spending, and the vast majority of the funds were used by the American boss to pay off debts, resulting in Benitez being stretched thin in the market this summer.
While Liverpool spent €20 million to bring in Aquilani from Roma and €18.5 million to bring in Glen Johnson from Portsmouth.
However, these transfer fees are not allocated by the club, and most of them are the result of Liverpool's sale of Xavi. Alonso's transfer income to Real Madrid.
Lost Harvey. Alonso, the introduction of Aquilani, Liverpool's squad strength has not increased.
To add insult to injury, Aquilani was injured when he arrived.
In the first round of the league, Carragher accidentally injured his team-mate Skrtel, so Liverpool are now unavailable at centre-back.
In a pre-match press conference, the media asked if Liverpool could win their first top-flight title in two decades this season.
Benitez seemed angry, and he directly stated that Liverpool's goal this season is to keep four to one.
"We don't have any money, unlike some clubs, which are obviously rich, but we don't have much investment." Benitez, who was in an unhappy mood, did not forget to sarcastically mock his old rival Manchester United.
When asked about the match against Aston Villa, Benitez finally regained some composure, "Aston Villa has been a sight to behold in the new season, but we are confident that we can win at home, this is Anfield. ”
That's right.
Liverpool's reporters don't think Benitez is talking big, even if it is a damaged Liverpool, it is not something that Aston Villa can resist, not to mention that at Anfield Stadium, Liverpool is really seeing who destroys whom.
Some reporters used Benitez's 'sure to win' remarks to stimulate Fang Jue.
'He's right, Liverpool are really strong, they were runners-up in the league last season and we have a tough game at Anfield.' Fang Jue was not fooled.
'Rafa Benitez is a great coach and when I coach in Spain I always hear people talking about Benitez's story.
"He's a winner, a real winner."
The coaches of both sides did not quarrel, and the reporters were a little disappointed.
……
'This is Anfield, the home of the great Liverpool.'
A tour guide spoke to his group outside the Anfield stadium with pride in his tone.
These Chinese tourists picked up their digital cameras, mobile phones, and professional cameras and took a slam at the main entrance of the stadium.
"Spread out! Disperse! Don't gather! ”
"Fast pass! Don't stay! ”
"Don't litter bottles!"
The mounted policeman on a tall horse shouted with a loudspeaker.
He was yelling at the Liverpool fans.
Chinese tourists watched in amazement as fans wearing red Liverpool shirts gathered from all directions, gathered in the square outside the stadium, waiting to enter.
"Mike, is there a game today?" A Chinese tourist asked.
"Premier League game, Liverpool at home against Aston Villa." Mike, the tour guide, said.
"Wow, it's Aston Villa."
"It's the team of that handsome coach."
"Yes, yes, it's Fang Jue's team."
"Can Aston Villa win today? Mike. ”
"Ah, it can't be! We are Liverpool! Mike said categorically, he remembered that Aston Villa's head coach is Chinese, no wonder these Chinese fans have supported Aston Villa.
This upset Mike a little.
Although he had gotten along well with these Chinese tourists before, at this moment, the British tour guide 'didn't recognize his six relatives', "Don't ask this terrible question again, Liverpool will definitely win against Aston Villa." ”
"Ahh
"That's a shame."
To Mike's surprise, the Chinese tourists were not angry and no one argued with him.
"Mike, we're not fans, don't worry, no one is arguing with you." A tourist said with a smile.
He's right, most of these people are not fans, at least not Aston Villa fans, they just 'supported' Aston Villa's remarks, more out of verbal support for compatriot Fang Jue, that's all.
Chinese are very well-behaved abroad, no one will cause trouble, and will not quarrel with tour guides because of such a trivial matter.
There were only a few little girls muttering there, probably saying that if Aston Villa lost, Fang Jue must be unhappy, so distressed or something.
Mike laughed too, he understood that these tourists, especially the girls, were not fans, they were just looking at the handsome coach of Villa.
"Can I still buy a ticket to watch the game?" Someone asked.
"Nope." Mike shook his head and looked at the Reds fans who were ready to enter with envy, "Anfield, it's never possible to buy tickets temporarily. ”
"Or, find us a place to watch the game." It was proposed.
"That's a good idea."
"Go to the bar and experience the bar to watch the ball."
The tourists said.
Mike was also moved in his heart, he originally planned to take these fans to the commercial street shopping street today, and he could also earn dividends with it, but at this moment, the temptation to watch the game was tormenting him.
Is it to make money?
Or watching the ball?
"You all want to go to the bar?" Mike asked.
He swore that if one of the tourists objected, he would take them shopping in the high street as originally planned.
A few minutes later, Mike calmed a few fans who were reluctant to go to the game and headed straight to the bar with the large group.
……
The starters also have to wait for the appearance ceremony.
Fang Jue took the substitutes and members of the coaching staff to pass through the players' tunnel first.
Fang Jue looked up, he was looking at the famous slogan: This is Anfield.
Looking at this sentence, which was widely publicized by the media, Fang Jue showed a contemplative expression.
"Wow, that's handsome." Female tourists exaggerated their shouts.
Mike arrives at the bar with his tour group and happens to see this scene on the live stream.
Mike pouted, he wanted to say that the guy was frightened by Anfield, but he finally didn't speak, he was afraid of offending the tourists and the owners.
Players from both sides entered the pitch.
Anfield Stadium erupted in loud cheers.
The live footage showed the starting lineups of both sides.
Liverpool line-up:
Goalkeepers: 25 Reina;
Backline: 2-Glen Johnson, 23-Carragher, 40-Ayala, 22-Insuya;
Midfielders: 20-Mascherano, 21-Lucas, 18-Kuyt, 8-Gerrard, 15-Benayoun;
Forwards: 9-Torres;
'Skrtel was injured in the first round of the league and Aager was also injured in training, so Benitez had to field young Daniel today. Ayala. ”
On the bar's TV, the voice of the narrator Lineker sounded.
"In this game, Ayala's performance is worth watching, and whether the young Spaniard can withstand the onslaught of Aston Villa is the key to whether Liverpool will concede goals." John. Mortenson said.
"Rest assured, the old Husky can't pose a threat to this lad." Tony Parker said.
Although Tony Parker's big mouth has caused quite a bit of controversy, especially Aston Villa fans have called to complain.
However, BBC5 appreciated the buzz and influence caused by the loud-mouthed guest, and this time simply let Tony Parker leave behind the scenes and go straight to the scene. Mortensen commented on one of the top brass of Game 5 that if the trio worked well, they intended to continue.
……
The TV footage followed with Aston Villa's starting line-up.
Aston Villa starting line-up:
Goalkeeper: 1-Brand. Friedel;
Backline: 2-Lukyan, 24-Cuellar, 6-Felipe. Senderos, 3-Wilfred. Bauma;
Midfielders: 4-Clement, 19-Petrov, 7-Ashleyyan, 8-Milner, 10-Deisler;
Forwards: 18-Heskey;
"It's also interesting to say, on the Liverpool side, Brother was injured at the training ground, and on the Aston Villa side, the central defender Davidson was injured during the warm-up, so the Swiss central defender Senderos was temporarily replaced."
'It was also Senderos' first appearance since his move to Aston Villa. John. "Here in Senderos, it could be a breakthrough for Liverpool. ”
"It's like Aston Villa will focus on Daniel. Ayala is the same there. Lineker laughed.
For the commentators, if there are more goals in this game because of these two accidents, it is naturally what they are most happy to see.
Amid the huge cheers at Anfield, players from both sides lined up to enter.
The live radio broadcasts the names of the players from both sides.
When the names of the Liverpool players were announced, the atmosphere was warm and the applause continued.
And when the names of the players of the away team Aston Villa were read, there were no shrill boos at Anfield Stadium.
In fact, Liverpool and Aston Villa have no old grudges, on the contrary, the relationship between the two teams is quite good.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Aston Villa is one of Liverpool's best friends in the Premier League, and Liverpool also take good care of Aston Villa, two years ago, Aston Villa had no goalkeeper available, and Liverpool immediately loaned the young England international Carson to Villa at a low price.
Previously, Liverpool sold Czech international Baros to Villa for an extraordinary price.
Aston Villa visited Anfield last season, and Aston Villa captain Barry was also seen entering the Liverpool dressing room at half-time and chatting and laughing with Liverpool's stars.
In fact, this is also understandable, Aston Villa has good strength, but there is no threat to Liverpool, such a little brother relationship is good, at a critical moment, not to mention let Aston Villa release water, at least let Aston Villa help block it when facing Manchester United or Chelsea and Arsenal.
This kind of big brother-little relationship is very common in the Premier League.
Chelsea's younger brothers are West Ham United and Portsmouth.
Manchester United's hardcore juniors include Everton and Fulham.
Fulham, for example, Manchester United and Fulham can almost be called brothers, this team known as the Red Devils' nemesis, the team has taken the three points at Old Trafford many times, and I still have in my mind the incredible expression of the Japanese star Junichi Inamoto after breaking through the door of Manchester United. At Clarkewen Cottage, Fulham were able to give the Reds three points at crucial moments.
Manchester United's good friends also include Aston Villa, Manchester United's relationship with Aston Villa can be traced back to the time when Colombian striker Angel joined Villa, Manchester United paid Villa a transfer fee of 13 to River Plate at that time, Villa is also very grateful, home and away to send six points, the tacit understanding between the two sides is tacit.
Of course, this is a conspiracy theory, involving relegation or competing for a place in Europe, and it is red-eyed, and the six relatives do not recognize it.
In addition, Aston Villa and Chelsea have a good relationship.
Yes, Aston Villa have a good relationship with the Premier League's traditional top three.
Aston Villa share the same style as West Ham United......
The reason why it is the traditional top three, this is because Arsenal is a bit unsociable, and in recent years, except for buying a Walcoat from Southampton, they have rarely spent a lot of money on other Premier League juniors......
Players who don't use their own hands rarely sell them for free or at a discount to their little brothers, and they still think that they can earn a little bit of money.
The younger brother rarely benefits from you, so the natural relationship is very ordinary.
……
Straight to the point.
Players from both sides enter the stadium and line up.
Players from the away team Aston Villa took the initiative to shake hands with the Liverpool players and the referee.
The captains of both teams exchange flags.
Guess the coin to pick the edge.
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard lost to Aston Villa's captain Petrov in a coin guess.
So, Aston Villa got the right to pick the side, and Liverpool kicked off first.
Seeing this result, Fang Jue shook his head off the court, "Actually, I prefer that we can kick off first." ”
Playing away from home against a strong opponent like Liverpool, it's best to be able to get the kick-off and control the football at your feet from the start of the game, so that you can control and influence the tempo of the game as much as possible.
'It doesn't matter, anyway our tactics are to defend and counter-attack and the ball is nothing at Liverpool's feet. Ceballos said.
Fang Jue glanced at his partner, Ceballos's words were not wrong, but the specific opponent should be analyzed specifically.
At Anfield, Fang Jue knew that his team could not be too weak, because once Liverpool played high, it would be a miracle to be saved.
Gotta tough!
After several years of cooperation, he understood that his assistant was indeed ...... It's just material for assistants.
What Fang Jue arranged for him to do, he was able to do a very good job according to Fang Jue's requirements.
However, if Ceballos were left alone, he would not have that ability.
However, Fang Jue was very pleased, because Ceballos was indeed his good helper.
The two have been working together for almost three years, and they are very compatible.
Of course, for the situation that Liverpool may kick off first, Fang Jue is also prepared.
"Looks like you're confident." Fang Jue teased Ceballos.
"I have faith in you." Ceballos said.
Fang Jue smiled, what he was most satisfied with about Ceballos was that he was an honest man, very impressive, and liked to tell the truth.
……
"This match is the first meeting between Benitez and Fang Jue." Lineker said, "I'm looking forward to seeing which of the two will come out on top. ”
Lineker's words drew a rebuttal from Tony Parker.
"Gary, I admit that Fang Jue is better, but he and Benitez are still not comparable."
It can't be said that Tony Parker deliberately raised the bar, and in the audience's ears, there is still some truth in what he said:
Fang Jue is a champion young coach and a popular young coach, but what is Benitez, he is a champion coach who has been famous for many years, and a coach who has won the European Champions Cup.
"It's on!" It was at this time that John. Mortenson said.
With the referee on duty, Lee. Tyson's whistle blew and the game began.
Torres kicked the ball to Benayoun and turned to run forward.
The latter knocked the ball to Kuyt, and he ran forward himself.
One of Benitez's tactics for Liverpool was to use the kick-off opportunity to put pressure on Aston Villa's half once Liverpool had the right to kick off.
Why do you say 'tactic one'?
According to media statistics, as a 'master tactician', Benitez will make at least five or six tactical filings for Liverpool in a game on average, and at the craziest time, he will make eight or nine tactical filings for a game.
The Sun, which has a very bad relationship with Liverpool, even sarcastically said that Liverpool sometimes played badly because the players were confused by Benitez's tactics.
Milner put Kuyt on it, and no matter how much the Dutch got rid of it, they couldn't shake off the kraft candy.
Kuyt reluctantly passed the football to Gerrard.
As soon as the Liverpool captain got the ball, Deisler got entangled, and at the same time, Petrov came over to cover it.
In desperation, Gerrard opted to pass the ball back to Mascherano.
As soon as Mascherano got the ball, Clement pressed to the top.
Mascherano chose to play to Insua, who was passing to the wing.
As soon as Insua got the ball, he saw that Milner had rushed in front of him, and he chose to dunk the ball in an attempt to dunk Milner, and then calmly moved forward.
However, Insua clearly underestimated how difficult Milner could be, and he was entangled by Milner.
"Get out! Don't grind! Get it out! Liverpool's goalkeeper Reina was shouting loudly.
The goalkeeper has the clearest vision and the best ability to see the big picture.
Reyna saw the goalkeeper's position most clearly, the Aston Villa man's crazy frontcourt pressing, all rushed up, Insua if he still wants to continue to play with fire at the back, once the ball is broken, he as the goalkeeper will be the unlucky one.
I don't know if Insua heard Reina's shout, anyway, he didn't do that, he didn't choose to break the football out of the way, but to throw the football away, to get rid of Milner.
Fang Jue got up from the sidelines, staring at the pitch with anticipation in his eyes, and he focused on several of Liverpool's players, including Insua, the Argentinian youngster with outstanding characteristics such as excellent left-footed technique, excellent crosses, and in addition, good technique.
Also, as a South American player, I am very confident in my little skills, and sometimes I can be a little sticky...... To put it bluntly, at some point you will get a disease called 'but uncomfortable'.
And Milner was the medicine that Fang Jue prescribed to Insuya when she might commit such an illness.
